Waqt News clinch EMRA Cricket Tournament trophy

Neo News won the toss and opted to bat first. They piled a decent total of 61 runs for the loss of six wickets in the allotted 5 overs. WaqtNews replied strongly and punished the opponent bowlers so severely that they forgot their line and length. Rizwan Zeb was the star of the day for WaqtNews , who kept the Neo News at bay, thus gathered significant runs for him and the team.

WaqtNews captain Hasham Yousuf also batted with authority and smashed some sterling sixes and boundaries and brought his team closer to the required target. The match became a thriller in the last over of the match, which was bowled well by the Neo bowler, and the match had to be decided on the last ball with WaqtNews needing three runs to score victory.

Coming up to the expectations, Rizwan Zeb smashed a cracking six to steer his team to title triumph. The sterling shot also reminded the spectators of Miandad’s match-winning six. Soon after the match-winning six, wild celebrations were witnessed at the venue as the WaqtNews players and supporters started shouting and dancing on drum beats. Their hard work and passion for cricket paid off well, when they became crowned champions once again.

For his outstanding batting performance and match-winning knock, Rizwan Zeb was named player of the final. WaqtNews skipper Hasham Yousaf was given away the winning trophy and prize purse of Rs 100,000. Editor The Nation Salim Bokhari congratulated WaqtNews team and hoped that they would continue work hard and win more laurels for their organisation.
